It’s finally time… time for two brand spakin’ new levels of Octodad: Dadliest Catch; the Shorts! After the great response Octodad received from y’all, we wanted to give back a little in thanks for your support. Everyone who currently owns Octodad: Dadliest Catch as well as anyone who grabs a copy in the future will get these levels FREE through the new v1.2.x patch. The patch will download its way onto Steam on October 14th.

After completing the story of Octodad: Dadliest Catch you might be hungry for more. Maybe you’re curious how Octodad and Scarlet got along after their fateful meeting aboard the sailing ship “Cod of War?” Perhaps you’d like to know what shenanigans Stacy and Tommy get up to with their lavish amounts of free time? You can explore both of these questions in the Octodad Shorts “Dad Romance” and “Medical Mess!”

Even if you don’t own Octodad yet, you’ll still get these levels for free when you purchase the game! We’re also putting the game on sale for 1 week (beginning a day early, October 13th) at 50% off.

Be sure to pop back here once you’ve played the Shorts and let us know what you think!

P.S.
In addition to the new levels, there will be an assortment of bug fixes and smaller features, such as multiple mouse support for co-op, persistent checkpoint on last played freeplay/shorts level, and a global story timer. A more detailed list of notes will be available when the patch is released.

For the next 3 hours and 50 minutes or so Octodad: Dadliest Catch is 66% OFF, aka $5. Just wanted to post this here in case anyone who was originally interested in the game was waiting for a good sale.

Our lead artist Chris made this cool Octodad hat for TF2. It fits all classes and also has jiggle-bone physics for the head sack. If it gets enough upvotes and attention maybe we can get it added to the official game/store!
